Overview

Tilicho Lake is the highest lake in the world. It is situated in Nepal’s Annapurna mountain range and has an altitude of 4,919 meters. The lake collects the glacial melt of the entire Annapurna mountain range and is a spectacle you have to see to believe: the views across the lake are incredibly beautiful.

The Thorung La Pass is the highest point of the Annapurna circuit trek (sitting at 5,416 meters above sea level) and is the most popular pass chosen by trekkers wishing to circumnavigate the Tilicho Lake. We are delighted to offer our customers the opportunity to take part in a Tilicho Lake and Thorung La Pass trek, which is very similar to the Annapurna circuit trek, but with more opportunity to enjoy lake views and explore the rich and diverse culture within many small Nepalese mountain villages.

Incredible Views, Amazing Flora and Fauna

One of the most amazing factors in choosing this trek is the incredible array of flora and fauna that you can see on your journey. For visitors interested in native Nepalese wildlife, there is often also the opportunity to see the Himalayan Mountain goat and the elusive snow leopard throughout the trek. Trekkers will also be able to enjoy views of some of Nepal’s most famous peaks, whilst enjoying high-quality dining and lodge sleeping experiences as part of your trek.

There is no bad time of the year to take part in this journey. However, the best times of year to visit Nepal if you wish to take part in the Tilicho Lake and Thorung La Pass Trek is during the spring, autumn or winter seasons: most visitors choose to avoid taking part in this trek during the summer months of July and August, although the region is still very beautiful at this time.

The Tilicho Lake and Thorung La Pass Trek is considered to be a very safe trek, and although parts of the tree are considered to be strenuous, it is the ideal route for both active adventurers and enthusiasts who have never taken part in a mountain trek before.
